very virtually all of the above solutions are very virtually excellent. by employing layout, the catalytic converter converts the exhaust byproducts into hydrogen sulfide and water. each from time to time this mixture is slightly off stability and creates sulfuric acid it quite is purely one molecule away yet that doesn't take place all that oftentimes. Sulpher is the administrative byproduct of rotten eggs it quite is why the scent. decrease than proper circumstances the converter does no longer produce adequate sulpher to reason the good scent even with the incontrovertible fact that it very virtually constantly produces a comfortable scent and additionally you purely do no longer word it. have you ever been employing and scent the sulpher whilst automobiles pass you? don't be stricken concerning the scent till that's purely so good you are able to't stand it. As you place some extra miles on your motor vehicle, the scent will cut back by way of fact the catalytic converter "wears out" some.

Excess gas getting to the catalytic converter because it's not being burned in the combustion chamber. You have an engine problem that needs to be looked at, you might be able to save the cat if you hurry and don't drive it.

You probably need to check your catletic converter.
I had a problem like that one time and had the catletic converter
blow out then the smell went away.
Good luck.
